[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the others that it definitely comes down to temperament, but I do think there are some things you can do. 1) Prioritize sleep. A tired baby becomes an overtired baby. We always tried to be home for nap time etc. 2) From an early-ish age (maybe 8 weeks?) give them a few minutes to fuss to themselves before sleeping. This is not CIO. A fuss cry is very different than a real "I need you" cry. If my kids ever did a real cry, I'd always get them. 3) Don't rush to them for every little noise. If it's just babbling or a little fussing, let it go a few minutes before responding.[/quote]
